摘要： A height adjustable basketball backboard (23) is pivotally attached to a support member (10) by a parallelogram linkage (12). An adjusting link (36), pivotally attached to an extension (34) on one of the parallelogram links (28), is adjustably mounted to the support member (10) and is weighted to act as a counter balance force to the weight of the basketball backboard (23) to reduce the effort necessary to raise and lower the basketball backboard (23). A conversion kit for converting existing basketball backboard support system to the above referenced adjustable counter-weight design and methods for adjusting the counter-balance effect of the weight are disclosed.

摘要： An overhead supported net system (30) including a net (12) and a spaced pair of masts (32) pivotally connected to an overhead structure (36) to pivot about an axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the net between a stored position and a play position. A pair of braces (40) are connected to the overhead structure and the masts to lock the masts in the play position. The mast terminates short of the floor.

摘要： A breakaway basketball rim assembly (10) in which the mounting bracket (16) and rim (12) are operably interconnected by a torsion rod (26) which twists resiliently in response to an impact or other downward load on the rim (12). The torsion rod (26) may extend parallel to the backboard, with one end (28a) being fixedly mounted to the mounting bracket (16) and the other end (28b) being fixedly mounted to the rim (12), so that the torsion rod (26) allows the rim (12) to deflect downwardly about an axis that extends parallel to the backboard. The torsion rod (26) may be mounted to overlapping flanges (32a,32b,34a,34b) on the mounting bracket (16) and the rim (12). There may also be a longitudinal torsion rod (52) that extends perpendicular to the transverse torsion rod (54), so as to permit the rim (12) to deflect downwardly about axes that extend both parallel and perpendicular to the backboard (18). Also provided is a structure for attaching the net (20) to the rim member (12), in which there is a depending flange (94) on the lower edge of the rim and a plurality of through openings (96) having projections (110a,110b) which receive and hold the attachment loops on the net.
